1961
Barack Hussein Obama Jr. is born on August 4th, 1961 in Honolulu, Hawaii.

1968
The "An American Expat in Southeast Asia" blog reports that Obama's Indonesian schooling began when he was entered into the Roman Catholic, Franciscus Assisi Primary School on January 1, 1968 and sat in class 1B. He was registered under the name Barry Soetoro, serial number 203. School documents listed Barry Soetoro as an Indonesian citizen and his religion was listed as Islam.

Salman Rushdie and Ali Hirsi also grew up Muslim. They aren't anymore. The state of someone's religion doesn't have to be permanent.

Is Obama still a citizen of Indonesia? Duel citizenship would not prevent him from being president. He was born in America.

1971
Obama enters the Besuki Primary School, a government school. He was enrolled as Barry Soetoro, Muslim.

1971
All Indonesian students are required to study religion at school and a young Barry Soetoro, being a Muslim, would have been required to study Islam daily in school. Although somewhat less than a typical student in a Catholic school. In a madrassa, he wouldn't have studied anything else.

He would have been taught to read and write Arabic, to recite his prayers properly, to read and recite from the Quran and to study the laws of Islam. Actually no. He was there from 6 to 10. Classes were taught in Indonesian. He almost certainly would not have studies law at that age and it's doubtful that he memorized much of the Quran. If he had been firmly attached to the religion, he would have stayed a Muslim.

1972
Classmate Rony Amiris describes young Barry (Obama) as enjoying playing football and marbles and of being a very devout Muslim. Amir said, "Barry was previously quite religious in Islam. He's 11 years old! That's 35 years ago! People do change.

Rony extrapolates further, that Obama at one point had to change his religion if he ever intended later to run for the office of President of the United States because America would never elect a Muslim to the be President of the United States. That's good. Well, extrapolation is as good as fact! Therefore, because someone who knew him at 11 extrapolates, now we know his motive for converting!

2001 Obama is also protective of civil rights for Muslims in the U.S., saying, "In the wake of 9/11, my meetings with Arab and Pakistani Americans have a more urgent quality, for the stories of detentions and FBI questioning and hard stares from neighbors have shaken their sense of security and belonging," he laments. "I will stand with them should the political winds shift in an ugly direction." I already know, civil rights is a dirty word for the right wing.

2003 Obama calls the Iraq war "a botched and ill-advised U.S. military incursion into a Muslim country." And 60% of the country agrees with him.

Obama had written a book about his life. Anybody who didn't know the facts could easily refer to his own words.
